SHEA GENEALOGY LINKS

This page gets updated pretty frequently. Don't forget to hit "reload" if you have "caching" on - so you get the latest version. indicates a recent addition, while indicates a page whose owner has moved without telling us!! The genealogy is still there, but we can't contact its owner.





This list is organized based on the person in the Shea family who left Ireland (for the US, Canada or Australia, usually). It goes by that person's BIRTH date since we usually know that. The "migrant" person seems to be where most people get stuck and was the most sensible way to organize the information.
